Re: My toys thread

wow..the lighting for your Momohime series is superb! love every bit of it! maybe u shd show us more setups..so that we can learn from u too~ XD

Thanks
Very encouraging to hear it from you.

Honestly I do not have much set up. Just a strobe and a white piece of A4 paper folded into half (so that it can stand on its own) as a reflector for fill light.
Reflector is usually placed right opposite of my strobe to bounce off optimal amount of light.

If you have noticed, there's some flare/glow/light spill in my photos. It's due to my personal fetish for having them in my photos. This is created by placing the strobe extremely near the frame.

For this photo, I basically found a light within the water fountain I was working with and placed my figu right beside it. It was a nice yellow light so I thought it was a nice touch to add more color to my scene.

Lastly I post processed a fair bit in Photoshop to add colors into photos that I couldn't do so in reality.
